Not this Saturday, but yeah. I need a break. Been fighting the blahs for a long time. Hoping the time away will relight the fire! I'm building a rock racer for the RR event and I'll be all over the races at Jerry's. |

I know the feeling. The slash has been a big help. Now I need something that can take stupid big jumps and bad landings and beg for more. Im hoping that the new Berg will help regain some interest in crawling.

I go through the same stuff too. I try something else and then relize why I like crawling again. I really love competition though, and designing is always something that keeps my head going. Thinking of new parts and ideas is usually what resparks my interest. |

Same here. I dig the mechanical aspect. But slow isnt the only way to go. |

I know that I will get cogging with something that's not sintered right?

Until there are sensored brushless crawling motors, I would pass, been there and done that. Start up just isn't reliable.

As far as I know, NO brushless motor has the same smooth start up or slow speed finese that a brushed motor will give you. Why are you wanting to go brushless? The constant beeping and brushless squeel personally drives me nuts.

LMAO! I was just wanting something else to blame my crappy driving on! Really I was going to go with a 35 but wasn't sure if going brushless would be better or not.

Get a good 35t hand wound motor(JP Custom RCs or Holmes Hobbies) and you'll be good. |
